Overview

The French Bulldog is a small energetic breed. They have large, rounded, bat like ears and a square flat head, similar to that of a English Bulldog but smaller. Their skin is quite soft making them very appealing to pet. Very comical little dogs they are always great for a good laugh and long friendship.

Character

The French Bulldog has a very even and pleasant temperament, which makes him a perfect candidate for a household companion. French Bulldogs are very playful, yet some males may be dog aggressive. This breed gets along well with most other animals, and does best with older children.

Temperament

This hilarious little dog makes a wonderful playmate and is very affectionate. Alert and clingy, this breed does require lots of human attention to thrive. This is not a kennel breed and should always be kept in a family environment. Given proper socialization the French Bulldog can do well with other dogs, but should not be around small children, as they do not tolerate rough play.

Care

This breed is an average shedder and does not need much grooming. Brushing with a rubber brush will remove any dead or loose hair. Due to the flat muzzle, the French Bulldog tends to drool so the mouth should be cleaned regularly. Bathe only when necessary.

Coat

The French Bulldog sports a very short and smooth coat that should be fine to the touch, to a certain degree. This breed does not require much grooming, but under the folds of skin should be regularly cleaned.

Training

The French Bulldog can be somewhat willful so consistency is required. Even this being a sturdy little breed, they do not respond well to harsh training methods. This dog does best with a patient handler. With the correct handler, this breed can go far.

Activity

The French Bulldog can easily become overheated due to the flat muzzle and breathing problems during extreme temperatures. Proper shade and water should always be provided. Not recommended for outdoor life. Do not exercise this breed in hot weather as this can cause heatstroke. If it's too hot outdoors, move your exercise and play indoors to prevent complications.

Ownership

Help reduce the number of French Bulldog puppies in shelters by doing your due diligence. Many puppies are often purchased with little or no knowledge of what goes into parenting one. Uneducated decisions often leave the puppy in need of adoption and in the care of rescue groups. Bringing home a puppy into your family has many benefits but we first implore you to educate yourself. An informed decision will take into account the characteristics of the breed, your lifestyle, expected veterinary care, the demands and limitations of owning one, their activity requirements and levels of companionship required.

My frenchie is losing some hair on each side of her. What can I do and is there a food I can switch Blood work came out normal. She has no mites or fleas. It doesn't seem to itch her. The thinning is symetrical on both sides.

Royal Canin is a very good and balanced food that Frenchies do well on. Another food you can try is "Blue" No Grain Salmon and Potato. It should work well for hair. Another thing you can try using Vitamin E, and just rub that into the area where the hair is lost, do it one or twice daily for about a week. But most of the hair loss is due to skin allergies and 90% out of a 100% is food related. I have all my Frenchies on Royal Canin and some on Blue and they are all good. 8/5/2013 2:06:26 PM

It could also be that your French Bulldog is a flank biter. They are bored because of lack of exercise. It could be your dog just needs more exercise. Ask the veterinarian.3/28/2015 10:45:18 AM

IMO I'd say that the Frenchies are a little heavier boned and they come in a wide variety of colors. I'm not an expert of Bostons. I raise Frenchies and English bulldogs. Overall the Bostons and Frnechies are similar in what dog breeds created them. I think the Frenchies are more "bulldogey" meaning more heavy bodied and they seem more laid back.1/22/2013 3:38:04 PM

Lots of praise, discipline and an electric training collar work wonders, especially the collar. Most of my dogs take two, maybe three corrections with the training collar and the unwanted behavior stops. I still have them wear the collar now and then to reinforce the good behavior. Also, be sure you're not giving too much attention to the bratty puppy when you think you're helping to stop the fight. Pick up your older dog, lavish attention, and completely ignore the bratty dog.1/3/2013 11:24:34 PM

Frenchie puppies can play very very rough with each other and other dogs. Sounds like the puppy is wanting too play to rough for your older dog to enjoy.
I would suggest getting the puppy in hand via some training classes. He needs to learn now that you are the boss. Frenchie puppies can become little tyrants and NOW is the time to get the little rascal under control.
The shock collar is a good idea but I'd take it a step further and get him out walking every day to wear him out and to make him learn to respect you. I would take him to a training class and give him a job. I think you will find that putting him to work and giving his mind and body something to do your problems will evaporate.
One final note: It's best not to allow aggressive dogs in the bed or on the furniture with you. That makes them think they are equal to you. When they sit and sleep on the floor it reinforces that they are subservient to you.
Good luck.

A good bred frenchie will run you as low as maybe 2000 but most reputable breeders charge $2500 tp $3000, sometimes more. The lower the cost the more likely you are to get a backyard breeder who just breeds for the money not the conformation and health of the dog. 1/12/2013 3:58:00 PM

Depends on the puppy and the mommy as well as the puppy buyers level of experience.

Probably a large. It may be too long in length but most clothes are not made large enough for a frenchies chest. My male is 27 lbs and wears a medium but a few larges because of the neck and chest. Frenchies are hard to find the right fitting clothes for.1/12/2013 3:54:59 PM

Be firm, tell him no. Other than that do not give him any attention what so ever or he will keep doing it. You may try getting up and walking away (still ignoring him) if just ignoring him does not work. If that still doesnt work, then each time he barks at the couch, tell hom no and put him in time out in his cage for a few minutes. 1/12/2013 4:01:57 PM

Can't hurt. especially if its really cold out, just be careful with the short nose, and make sure he cant overheat, like if things start to warm up later in the day. Some booties would be good if the paws become sensitive to road salt or lots of ice. 9/23/2012 10:20:33 PM

French bulldogs are good with all breeds.. As long as socialized and the other dog doesn't challenge them. Frenchies don't tend to back down.
They are a very active playful breed that tends to not know when to stop, you have to watch them cause they can play so hard that they cause themselves to overheat in winter.
They are a fairly healthy breed and if purchased from a reputable breeder who tests their dogs, offers health guarantees and has the pups get checked before leaving etc... You should have a nice long lived healthy pup.
Eyes, joints, spine etc tend to be problem areas. These dogs are 'deformed' in a sense. They are 'dwarf' versions of English Bulldogs and tend to have problems in the joints, etc, cause they are still active.
Expect to pay no less than $1000 for a well bred puppy. 11/9/2012 12:50:33 AM

Your French Bull Dog may have trouble staying cool enough. Do you have access to a freezer? You could fill a large plastic bottle 2/3 full of water and freeze it. Take it out when it starts to get really hot and put it under a thin towel or sheet where your dog likes to rest. That way he can get a little help cooling off. You can put the bottle back in the freezer at night again for the next day. Or just wipe him down with some cool water a few times during the hottest part of the day so long as its not too humid outside. 9/23/2012 10:29:09 PM

Frenchies don't bark much (as a breed). Ours will bark at other dogs she knows to have barked at her previously or when she hears something "suspicious" outside at night. She barks maybe two or three times a day and only short bursts. We have an indoor/outdoor cat that likes to hang out with her in the yard and they play and sometimes sleep together.
